GAME announces Need for Speed: Most Wanted lock-ins

Need for Speed: Most Wanted has been named as the next star of GAME’s lock-in events.

19 GAME outlets will host knockout tournaments (with pizza and soft drinks provided). The winner of each will win not only the game (which came out last year, don’t forget) but also its three new DLC expansion packs – Terminal Velocity, Movie Legends and NFS Heroes.

The winner of each will also have chance to take place in a time trial tournament spanning every store.

Those wishing to register need only to pop into a participating store, or alternatively contact it via Twitter. Places will be dished out on a first come, first served basis.

“We know that there are some seriously talented Need For Speed fanatics out there, so what better way to celebrate the release of three exciting new expansion packs than with a good old-fashioned knockout tournament?” GAME stores director Dave Howard stated.

“There are some great prizes up for grabs and each lock-in will be a fun-filled night of bonding and banter. So if you think you have what it takes to be the UK’s Most Wanted, this is your chance.”
